The Turtle Lodge and Manitoba First Nations Education Resource Centre (MFNERC) present Wahbanang: The Resurgence of our People – Clearing the Path for Our Survival. It commemorates the 50th Anniversary of Wahbung: Our Tomorrows.

Authored by Anishinaabe, Ininiwak (Cree), and Dakota Knowledge Keepers, Elders, and Chiefs, Wahbanang shares ancestral wisdom. It offers an urgent warning and a blueprint for all peoples to uphold the Great Binding Laws of the Creator and Mother Earth. Includes a video presentation.

Wahbanang, meaning 'Going Back to the beginning,' builds on the 1971 Wahbung, which asserted First Nations' inherent rights. It originated from a 2018 Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs (AMC) initiative at the Turtle Lodge. It is available for purchase here.

The journey as it is known is the spiritual work Native peoples use to transform painful experiences into meaning and purpose.  It takes courage to show up for one’s life and respect.

Since 1989 the NW Coastal Indians have participated in a Canoe Journey to villages on the ancestral highways of the Salish Sea. The commitment to be a part of this means joining a canoe family that excludes members from alcohol or drug use. This is a spiritual commitment and people who are in recovery are urged to join as it brings healing to themselves, their family, and the tribe.
